Welcome Mil-Blogging Buddies!

Hey Y’all!

I am so excited to be this week’s featured blogger over at Mil-Blogging buddies FB group! I joined this group in order to learn more about one of my favorite hobbies. Although I only have 40+ followers and nowhere near the same amount of page views as others in the group, I still love doing what I do.

So, I was asked to write about what’s behind the curtain of Mallory. Ha! It truly depends what day of the week it is! I am a highly emotional person, and I live life with lots of passion. This could mean trying to change the world one day… or standing on my soap box saying why I think going back to the basics is best! I feel like people describe me as a bubbly introvert. Is that even possible?

 

My daily life is full speed into the hectic stage. I have a 5 year old son, 2 year old daughter and we just had out last baby girl who is 6 weeks old. Sleep is far in-between. Peaceful showers and potty breaks don’t exist. I am pretty sure I don’t eat 3 meals a day either! We also are a homeschooling family! I promise, I am sane most days!

My husband is amazing. He has been in the Army for 13 years. I know people tend to write or say mushy things when asked about their significant other…. BUT he really is a keeper. He does the dishes. Does MOST of the cooking. He is VERY patient when he comes home to a beautiful mess. I just love him to pieces and feel like he and I are perfectly imperfect for each other.

Another thing we are asked to include are our favorite blog posts. Although I don’t have many… I have some very honest ones that I like to look back at.

I suffer from depression so this was a recent one I wrote.

Suffering Silently

I also lost my dad unexpectedly in 2006. It took me awhile to tell my story so this is a post I look back to often that was written in 2010.

Cleaning out my closet

 

I write about topics that make me who I am. I don’t focus on one thing. I wish I had more readers, but right now I don’t even know where to begin! My blog design is simple. That’s all I know how to do. My readers are just family and friends. Hopefully one day I’ll grow! As my life starts finding a schedule again (the baby starts sleeping more at night and less during the day) I hope to write more.

Thank you for taking the time to read what I had to say. To reminisce about the day you started blogging. Back at square one.

I was made to be Courageous.

This movie was made to change lives.  Just like Fireproof.  When was the last time you sat down and watched a movie with no cuss words... and a message about God. It made my soul feel so good.

So many times I hear people say "Oh, they say they are Christians but they don't act like it." We are the number one group that is judged because of our stance in life.  I don't blame anyone for judging either. I know I have strayed away several times in my life. Doesn't mean I'm NOT a Christian. It just means I messed up.  I made a bad decision. It's certainly not hard. Especially when you are around so many people who don't believe. It's not their fault. It's my fault. I find it easier when I surround myself around others who believe in the same things I do. It's important to me.

I want my children to grow up in a house that serves the Lord. I want to lead by example.

I choose to believe in God. I remember the day. I remember asking my parents to bring me to church on Wednesdays and on Sundays. I was 13 years old. I made the choice... and I have never looked back once.  Again, I'll admit I have strayed for one reason or another. HE understands. I always have came back. I love HIM. HE makes me feel whole. HE makes me feel like I have a bigger purpose in life.

The world is changing. Everyday. It's not the same as it use to be. That doesn't mean we don't need something to believe in.  It doesn't matter what it is. As long as it's positive then you should be able to choose your path of faith.

I was made to be courageous. 
I was made to follow HIS path.
I was made to share my light.

Today I am grateful for WHO I AM.

I hope everyone reads this and know that it's OK to stand up for what you believe in.  You don't have to be mean about it... or over-powering.  Just be kind. And stand up with love.  You're more likely to get people to believe in you are your mission. Whatever that is.

God has never left my side.

I am a Believer.
